We had to throw away alot of food from the freezer and fridge. Managed to save a couple boxes of chicken legs by grilling them and bringing it to grandma's house so that helped. Fridge and freezer are completely empty, going shopping for basics tomorrow then build up over time

Haleylvr4evr, this is one of the sad consequences of a prolonged power outage (and, of course, not something that would covered by home insurance). It is unfortunate. Please let us know if there is someway that we can help.
There are other folks who are loosing homes due to fire, floods, etc. Tusk mentioned, as reasons, (sort of) tongue in cheek "global warming, Mayan apocalypse".
I work in a sponsored research office at a public higher education institution. For the past 2 years, once a month we have someone who is engaged in research (at this institution) come to a weekly staff meeting time to present their research to us. In such meetings, we've heard, more than once (actually about two times a year), about the rapid rate of the glacial icecap melt.
None of these researchers who have presented to us have ever claimed "why they think the glacial icepack is melting as quickly as it is." Because they're doing their job well/correctly, they've reported only what has taken place and its consequences -- that the glacial icecap is diminishing at rate that within less than a half century will make changes on the landscape as we currently know it.
Like it or not, there is most likely "a change is a comin." What that "change" is remains to be seen.
